Description: Suzy X, of Chinese, Cuban, Guatemalan and European ancestry, writes about her childhood in Jacksonville, Florida. Her father, mother, and grandfather were abusive emotionally, physically, and sexually. In the South, she dealt with racism from various racial groups in school as well as her family. Suzy also writes about the sexism and racism found within her own Cuban culture. She later became a punk, went to college, discovered feminist politics, and worked with her mom to improve their relationship. The zine comes with a trigger warning for graphic descriptions of abuse.
